[iamaboringperson]

There will be a private keyboard dance for those who request it . Be prepared to "Get Boinged!"

WHOOHOO! Well, in that case, I'm there!!!
She can preview AOS4 for me anyday! ;-)



Can you point me to a larger picture of her, or tell me who she is, and what she's doing? :-o

It would be nice  ;-)  :-D  if we could get enough UK users to justify even one hall of the NEC, but as for the others - well, I don't know them.

Would they be over Black Country way, by any chance?  ;-)

(PS: I'm over Coventry way - can you translate that please?  ;-)  :-D )

just Google'd for Wulfrun - If you'd called it the Wolverhampton Civic Hall, I'd have known what you meant.

You're certainly thinking big, aren't you?  ;-)

[xeron]

No no! It should be in the south west ;-)

[Stimpzilla]

Nah... - Midlands are fairer to everyone  ;-)

JB might be better if its smaller than the Wolves Civic. The general theme for tour venues seems to be somewhere with space for seating, possible presentation space (bit in the corner where a table and projector can be put?), and space for tables and machines  ;-)

Cov's mental, huh? And I own an Amiga, and name myself after a cartoon character, so I must be the embodiment of sane normality  ;-)  :-D

Eh? I said south WEST, not London ;-)

[MarkTime]

So, what are they going to show at this OS 4 Roadshow in Australia?

We know they can't show OS 4, so can we assume this isn't really going to be in Australia, or is that a leap of logic?

Don't get me wrong, I'm a blind OS4 follower as much as the next irrational and mentally unstable Amiga Inc. follower, but is it just me or is there always an OS4 announcment ready for every MorphOS one?

EGADS!  If all it took was being irrational and mentally unstable, then I would be an OS4 follower too. :-D

[cecilia]

i wish everyone in Australia a good time! wish i could be there.
love those sexy accents!
 :-D

[tonyw]

Thanks Cecilia. We ALWAYS have a good time out here.

What was Mark Time muttering about? OS4 will be demonstrated running in PPC, on Cyberstorm PPC Amigas. Not on AmigaOnes until the Friedens release something publicly.

Where do we have a good time?  :-(



I want it to come to melbourne!

[iamaboringperson]

love those sexy accents!

yeah .... roit!

[csirac_]

love those sexy accents!

Funny you should say that.. I know two people going overseas for 12 months (Japan/Canada) and when they came back took a while to get used to the (read: annoying) Australian accent again... wierd, especially since *they* didn't lose their own accent, just weren't used to hearing it

@cecilia, may I reccomend THESE DVDs? Other Aussies may groan but they can be a good laugh.

Barry Humphries' legendary

THE ADVENTURES OF BARRY McKENZIE
(30th Anniversary Edition)

Stars: Barry Crocker, Barry Humphries, Spike Milligan, Peter Cook, and Dennis Price. Introducing Paul Bertram as Curly.



Long before the "gross-out" comedies Something About Mary, Dumb And Dumber, American Pie, Me, Myself & Irene, Road Trip etc, Bruce Beresford's film of Barry Humphries' PRIVATE EYE comic strip THE ADVENTURES OF BARRY McKENZIE (the world's first gross-out comedy) shocked its financiers, the Australia Government, with its portrayal of Australians as drinking, shagging, vomiting, urinating vulgarians. The British press were equally horrified with the English portrayed as upper class perverts, poofters, lezzas, swindlers, exploiters and idiots.

The Adventures Of Barry McKenzie
Barry McKenzie Holds His Own

Edna's nephew Barry and his chums (including a permanently intoxicated Clive James) have to travel into darkest Transylvania (on Vamp-Air) to rescue his aunt, Dame Edna, whose been mistaken for the Queen by Count Erich Von Plasma, a transylvanian vampire and head of a Stalinist state which has no tourist industry.

In the course of this film there are numerous sight gags and sub plots most of which are either racist, sexist or both. The French and the Poms are the main targets, although a scene involving a van loan of illegal immigrants and a DHSS office would not be tolerated if it were filmed today.
